Mating Requirements

Even though a lizard keeper can take excellent
care of both male and female lizards, this may still not
be enough for successful reproduction. Both animals must
have the proper sexual instincts when the time is right.
The most effective way to properly stimulate this is through
climate control. The climate of your habitat plays a very
significant role in the overall health of the lizard,
and their willingness for sexual activity. Not all lizards
are the same, as they come from all over the world. Improper
climate will have negative effects on their natural behavior.
You must be able to trigger the sexual drive of your lizard.
Learn everything you can about their natural environment.
Cold periods, warm periods, and the temperature and humidity
during their mating season. By emulating this, you will
successfully trigger their sexual instincts, and have
a better chance of breeding your lizards.
